Unfortunatly they are pritty damn slow, you will see once you get use to the car and u get are ass kicked my an lt1/ls1. I think the fastist that car would go would be 120mph MAX. I beleive, i had a friend that had and 84z that was a dog. Anways hopefully you didnt get his old car http://web.camaross.com/bb/wink.gif

There is an equation that you can use to figure out how fast your car will go. Go to www.thirdgen.org (http://www.thirdgen.org) and look in the "Equations" section seen on the left side of the page. All you need is your gear ratio, tire diameter, and RPM.

I topped mine out at 137, thats on a radar gun too. My uncle works for the highway department and he had access to one for some odd reason.
